strain gauge vibration sensor

The sensing element is a carefully bonded metallic foil strain gauge configured in a full bridge to cancel out temperature effects and provide a clean signal. Depending on your application, we can tailor the gauge factor, resistance, and excitation voltage to match common logger inputs. The excitation is typically 5–10 VDC, and the output is a low-level millivolt signal that can be amplified on-site. For longer cable runs, we offer built-in signal conditioning that converts the output to a robust 4–20 mA loop or digital RS485—reducing noise pickup and simplifying wiring. The sensor body is machined from stainless steel and sealed to withstand rain, dust, and immersion; standard models carry an IP67 rating, with IP68 available on request. Installation is straightforward with threaded studs or magnetic bases, and we can pre-attach cables of specified length with weatherproof connectors. Every unit ships with a calibration sheet certifying its linearity and sensitivity, and we keep records to support long-term drift analysis. Kingmach’s role extends beyond the hardware: our engineers help with sensor selection, wiring diagrams, and integration with your data acquisition system. We maintain stock in regional hubs to shorten lead times, and our after-sales team is available for troubleshooting and recalibration. For projects that demand non-standard ranges, special mounting fixtures, or accelerated delivery, our factory can adapt processes quickly without compromising quality.
